torque monster!

plenty of turbo upgrade kits available, and you wouldn't be re-inventing the wheel should you decide to do it.

Dare I say Coops had some involvement in this purchase? Pursuasion etc?

Matt boosts shannon in then runs around to the drivers side and she helps drag him up.

Great choice. Just need to find a rolled 200 series and transplant the engine gearbox in.

Mr Cooper wasn't the driving factor behind it but certainly gave some good advice in the lead up to the purchase. I had just out grown little cars, had a Starlet 4 years, replaced it with a '08 Getz but the Getz was just TOO small. Yes, its actually smaller than a Starlet. Plus I've started going to events like Busselton and Albany and just want the peace of mind to be able to come home regadless of what size tree i put it into... Tino I'll get a car trailer some time in the future but I think I have plenty of things to pay off first. Plus the $700 i spend a week in diesel is starting to hurt

10th outright, 4th in class at windfarm. Just didn't have the horsepower + balls there and the Nissans mobbed me. also was raining and oil on the track. Plenty of excuses Also note the wheelspin in 2nd..
